Today we take you to the Tiendschuur in Well. That is in Limburg, The Netherlands and it is a restored 14th-century medieval castle, which is home to Emerson's Semester Abroad Program in Well, The Netherlands. Emerson College from Boston, Massachusetts - USA. It also once used to be a Church, just click the hyperlinks for more information. Tiendschuur in Well is only in Dutch but you can see the photos for getting an idea. Emerson's Semester Abroad hyperlink is in English.

Elvira is such a beautiful bride, Mariette. You must be proud of her. I realize it was a special experience for you and your husband to go back to the old country for the wedding. So glad you could be there. Looking forward to hearing more about the festivities. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
